An Interview with Our School Social Worker,  Kaarina  Jaakkola

What are your hobbies?

• Reading, gardening and solving crosswords.

What is your job?

• I´m a school social worker.

What is your educational background?

• I hold a Master´s Degree in Political Science and Social Work.

What kind of person were you when you were a teen?

• I don´t remember, it´s so long time ago. Maybe the same as now.

What was you dream job when you were a teen?

• I didn´t have a dream job after school. First I worked as a librarian, but then I decided to study in university. I studied Social Politics and Political Science and at some point I thought that it would be interesting to work as a school social worker. So that´s how I became a school social worker.

Name three positive and three negative sides about your job.

• I´ll start with the negative ones. I have three schools to work at and a lot of student´s to help so it´s hard to find time for every student. Also, the holidays could be a little bit longer and the salary could be a little bit better.
• The positive sides are that it´s nice to work with children and teens, and I have nice workmates.

How much English do you use at work?

• Not that much. Very seldom. I try to start by speaking English but, usually, if we aren´t able to communicate in Finnish with my clients we get a translator.

What kind of advice would you give to our students?

• Take care of your health, don´t give up on your studies, do your homework regularly and have fun, too.

What are your plans for the summer holiday?

• I will go to my cottage and do some gardening.

An Interview with Our School
Nurse Annina Julin
What is your educational background? How did you
become a nurse?

– After comprehensive school I went to high school.
Then I studied four years at Turku University of
Applied Sciences. I have a bachelor’s degree in Nurs-
ing.
What was your childhood like?

– I’m not originally from Turku, I’m from Kotka. I had a
normal childhood, I can’t say anything special about it.
I have a dad, mom and a sister, nothing terribly unusual.
– It was different, when I was young I had strict limits at
home but when I grew up I got to decide more about my
own things like how I spent my money.
What was your dream job as a teenager? Did you
have anything else on your mind?

– I thought that I would become a PE teacher. I also
thought about studying in middle school. When I
attended the entrance exam I noted that it wasn’ t my
thing so I chose to become a nurse.

What are the positive and negative sides in
your job?
– There are mostly positive sides. I really like this job
and receiving students. You can regulate yourself
what and when you do something. The job is also vari-
able. Every day is different. There is always some-
thing new. I can’t really say anything bad.

 

Do you travel a lot?

– I don’t travel a lot but I have been to Bulgaria, Croatia,
Austria, France, Italy, Sweden, and Estonia. I like to
travel and I try to make a journey at least once a year.

What about your hobbies? 

– I go jogging and I go to gym, too. I ’ m not a memeber
of any sports club, I only cultivate myself.

Matemattiikkaluokka 7M kävi  perjantaina 12.5.2017 tutustumassa Koneteknologiakeskukseen. Vierailu alkoi tarjoilulla ja teknologiateollisuuden esittelyllä. Tämän jälkeen oppilaat kiersivät pienissä ryhmissä eri rasteilla. Oppilaat tutustuivat mm. 3d tulostukseen, laserleikkaukeen, robotiikkaan, pneumatiikkaan ja virtuaalimaailmaan. Lopuksi pidettiin Kahootin kautta leikkimielinen kisailu opituista asioista.

Varsin onnistunut vierailu. Koulusta mukana opettajat Rantanen ja Lahtinen.

Seitsemäsluokkalaiset kävivät viikolla 14 opastetuilla historian Elämyspolkuvierailuilla Turun Tuomiokirkossa. Kirkko on täynnä Turun historiaa 1200-luvulta lähtien. Kävelimme kirjaimellisesti luiden päällä, sillä kirkon lattian alle arvioidaan haudatun noin 4500 vainajaa. Esillä oli myös reformation juhlavuosi. Kiitosta tuli kaikille luokille erinomaisestä käytöksestä. Kiitos myös Tuomiokirkon oppaille osaavista ja mielenkiintoisista opastuksista!

Kurssin  ensimmäinen retki pidettiin 17.-18.3.2017 Liedossa, Liesanmajalla. Lähdimme perjantaina 17.3 koulupäivän jälkeen klo 15.15. Nousimme bussiin koulun viereiseltä pysäkiltä. Matkasimme ensin Turun keskustaan ja sieltä Liedon keskustan kautta aina bussilinjan 6 päätepysäkille.

Päätepysäkiltä lähdimme vaeltamaan noin 5km matkaa peltojen, metsän ja ojien yli yöpymispaikalle Liesanmajalle. Majalla koottiin telttoja, tehtiin nuotio sekä syötiin eväitä. Eväinä meillä oli makkaraa, lettuja yms.

Nuotiokokkailujen jälkeen kömmittiin nukkumaan ja viisi rohkeaa uskaltautui telttaan, mutta vain kaksi vietti ulkona koko yön. Aamulla osa ryhmästä lähti omilla kyydeillä kohti uusia haasteita. Paikalle jääneet lähtivät takaisin bussipysäkille.

Yksi reissun pysäyttävimmistä kokemuksista oli sorkkaeläimen luurangon löytyminen pellon reunalta, kartan ulkopuolelta.

Pienten vastoinkäymisten jälkeen pääsimme bussipysäkille ja kotimatka sai alkaa.
